Heaven Vs Hell Chapter 2

"Not a soul about," he said and then laughed at his joke.
Flicking his wings back and forth to try and ease away some of the silence, he floated up into the air and lay on his back. Putting one hand in front of his face to cover a yawn emerging from his mouth, he frowned.
"What's wrong with this planet today? I can't even spook anyone and that's the best part about this job!"
Flying towards the large mall, Krillin looked on with surprise as he noted that there was no light of any sort in the building. Floating down to the ground to investigate, he suddenly noticed something hid in the shadows of trees near the entrance of the mall. Wondering what was happening, he crept closer and hid behind the building wall.
Slapping himself on the face, he laughed silently, "Man…what am I doing?! No one can see me! Stupid stupid!"
Moving closer, he heard a slight movement and the quietest whisper of voices. Being as quiet as possible, he edged even closer and focused on the voices.
"It's the perfect plan…nothing could possibly go wrong!" one voice whispered.
"Yeh…but…"
"But what?!"
"What about the cops?"
"What about them? They won't bother us…no-one will. No one dares to come out when the entire city is in darkness. Come on…"
Suddenly hit with realisation, Krillin gazed upwards at the dark lampposts.
'D'uh, that's why no-one's out!' he shook himself mentally. 'Krillin you are losing it man…you need a holiday!'
Hearing more movement coming from the men, Krillin flew into the air to watch. Knowing now that the pair were up to no good, he was ready to enjoy himself and scare them to death.
'Well…maybe not,' he thought, 'I could lose my job!'
"Come on man…hand me that crowbar…let's get this over with as soon as possible," one voice whispered.
There was a rustle, obviously the other person had handed over the crowbar.
Deciding that he shouldn't let the act go on any further, Krillin flew down and landed right behind the pair. Noting their appearance for their future placements, he walked up to one of them and pushed him into the other, crashing their heads into each other.
"OWWW, WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?!"
"I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!"
"YEH…SURE, IT WAS THE INVISIBLE MAN!"
"YEH WELL…I…WOAH…!"
The man was cut off as Krillin lifted him up into the air. Screaming like a little girl, Krillin put both of his hands to his ears, letting the guy fall the short distance back to the ground.
"I'm spooked, let's get out of here mate."
Both of the men ran away, leaving a trail of footprints behind. Floating back to the floor, Krillin moved his foot over the footprints and dusted them away.
'They'll pay for what they attempted to do later on,' he thought, smirking as he flew off into the night sky.

Running all the way down Snake Way with a huge grin on his face was Kakarott. He was beaming with pride that he had been the one selected to carry out this very 'special' task.
Pulling a small device out of his pocket, Kakarott punched a few numbers into the keypad and tapped his fingers on his shoulder, waiting for something to appear on the screen.
All of a sudden, a tall green creature appeared on the screen, dressed entirely in white.
"Woah…wat's with this guys get up huh?" Kakarott said as he noticed the turban, cloak and strange boots that the guy wore. "Was he going to a costume party or something when he died?"
Looking at the picture once more and laughing to himself at the 'silly' clothing, he pressed another button that showed some details about the soul he was collecting.
"Let's see now…mmm Piccolo…strange name…and er…hmm no age stated…he must be pretty old then…maybe he's embarrassed by his age!"
Raising himself off the ground, Kakarott crossed his legs and continued to move down Snake Way, floating slowly along as he tried to take in all of the information about the new soul.
"Not really any other information other than the guy's kept his body…strange. These things are usually packed full of info but there doesn't seem to be anything on this guy…mmm maybe it's broken."
Kakarott hit the thing a couple of times with his hand but the screen still stayed the same.
"Damn thing…I gotta tell King Yemma to sort this out…how am I supposed to…oh no!"
There was a small cry from Kakarott and a large clatter as the device fell to the floor and smashed.
Closing his eyes Kakarott slowly counted to 5…
"It's ok Kakarott…you didn't see that…that didn't happen…when you open your eyes it's going to be ok…4…5…ah no!"
Picking up the remains of his device, Kakarott frowned.
"Now what am I supposed to do? Think Kakarott…think!"
Hitting himself on the head with his hand he tried to figure out a way to find the soul without any aid.
"Owwee! Ok…wat was I doing?" He said, stumbling about in a dazed manner after having hit himself on the head one too many times.
Shaking his head to rid himself of his personal demons, he focused his eyes straight ahead.
"Ah…I see the gate out of here…maybe Dende will have some answers about what I should do with my keypad!"

Stalking quickly down the dark red path, Vegeta smirked to himself.
"A special assignment from the devil himself…ha…I must be doing something right. Pity…Pity the soul I'm bringing back will not be able to withstand my full demon powers. I need a bigger challenge…but I guess this will have to do for now."
Noticing the door in front of him, Vegeta pointed one finger at it and blasted it to smithereens.
"Hey!" A voice called out, "you're gonna have to pay for that Vegeta."
Vegeta turned around and put one hand to his ear. "Mmm…that's funny I thought I heard something…it sounded like a whimper…like that demon Nappa who I punched straight into heaven this morning. Mmm…shame he won't be coming back…"
The figure gulped, "Er…sorry to bother you Vegeta. I'll get out of your way, I can see that you are busy."
Vegeta held his head up in the air and walked straight over the figure, just as he was moving away. Turning around, he kicked the figure and spat on him before replying, "You should think yourself lucky, if I had been in a bad mood today, it wouldn't have just been that door that would have disappeared."
Kicking the figure one more time, Vegeta turned around and disappeared round the corner, leaving the demon doorman to pick himself up.
Laughter. Evil laughter. Cackling. Blood curdling screams.
That was what Vegeta heard as he turned the corner. Looking through a small window, he smirked as he saw the latest soul being stretched on a rack. The demon in charge was cracking a whip onto the bare flesh of the soul who was crying out in agony. Putting his ear closer to the window, Vegeta smirked again.
"Ahh…music…sweet music."
Suddenly the door opened and the demon in charge appeared. Noticing Vegeta stood by the window, he shouted at him.
"Hey Vegeta…you wanna join in the fun? There's plenty of room for another one. Just choose a torture device and join in the festivities."
"The offers tempting Frieza but I must decline. I am on a special mission sent by Him."
"Ah that's not fair…why do you get to have all the fun Vegeta?"
"Oh…I wouldn't say I get all the fun…you're the one who gets to listen to those pathetic whimpers and screams."
Frieza smirked. "Well…I best get back…I was just about to get the gut ripper out." His eyes glittered.
"Have fun Frieza."
Vegeta watched Frieza and stood by the window for a couple more seconds before resuming his walk down the damp and dreary path. Noticing the door, he clenched his hands into fists.
"This is the one…the one that will decide...my fate."
He threw the door open and stepped out of the world of darkness.
